[In a strong Russian accent, the English syntax slightly imperfect, but the tone confident nonetheless.] Hey, you. What you want bring me here for? Why you think I want work with you?

You know what I tell Hammer? I said, "If someone kills me, don't wake me up, because I would rather be dead than to live in your world."

So, what world you think you have that I want be part of?

[Apparently whatever his mun's got on the table is enough for a start though, because it makes him chuckle and seems to bring him around.]

You want see what I will do to Tony Stark?

All right, man. I can do that. No problem.

You watch.

We will see what there is for you to see.

[WHAT]

[OH GOD IS THIS HAPPENING

THIS CAN'T BE POSSIBLE

WHAT THE FUCK WAIT WHY

WHY IS THIS...THIS IS NOT GOOD

THIS IS NOT HAMMER TIME THIS IS VERY NOT GOOD MAN]

[Oh, hey, look, it's your buddy, Ivan! He's just all charm and smiles right now oh God he has no idea what's going on

please don't kick him in the face, people keep doing that. Kicking him in the face, it's like people don't like him.]

Heeey, look who it is! It's the bird man! You still have your bird, right?

[Laughing quietly to himself. Well. Maybe this isn't going to be so bad after all.]

Hey, Justin. [You slimy sonofabitch.] Long time no see.

How you like drone? Is good demonstration, eh?

[Slimy? That's a compliment coming from a man with prison tats scattered all over his body. What can he say? He does his best.

And he's totally buttoning the front of his jacket, rolling his shoulders and doing his best to look completely unfazed.]

I still don't see the difference between presentation and demonstration, Ivan. But...yes, it was good.

[He'd rather have these tats and the story each one caries than some soulless tailored Italian suit. Not like some rich American bastard would understand that.]

You have lots of profit for Hammer Industries, sure thing. Stock never better. Government want many of them to buy. [Well would you look at that: he's not even going to pretend he's not making fun of you.]

[Justin's not stupid. Ivan got smashed by a car, what? Three, four times? And still had the gumption to be a badass. And he's big. Bigger now that Justin finds himself without a guard or two around, or even Jack...don't piss of guys stronger and bigger than you, it's a good rule.]

A-ha, well...no. Actually, not...not at all. More like prison, to be exact. I'm sure you know how it is. Prison, I mean, not...it's good to see you, man! I've missed you, real shame what...about the, uh...dying thing, that'll really put a damper on...not being dead.

[~~That is debatable.~~ If nothing else, that self-preservation instinct will serve you well in jail, Hammer.]

Heh. Looks like not so dead as you thought. [And now that it comes down to it, he's pretty glad to be here so far. Seeing you squirm makes it so worth while.]

How they treat you in American prison? You make good friends, cell mate take good care you?

[God. Damn. It.]

No, actually, uh...government folks called SHIELD? They took me into custody, so it was a bit...I wasn't, you, you, you know with everyone else. I had my own little...cell. Cable, too! Just me and some guards and a therapist and...no cell mate and no...unsightly, uhm, run ins with...

[Ivan why are you making him so uncomfortable this is not cool]

[Don't mind him, he's just having a laugh at your expense over here.]

Too bad, man. [And then he says something in Russian, which, unless Justin's taken a crash course, he won't recognize as meaning: You might have become more human if you had.]

[NO FUCKING RUSSIAN

FUCK RUSSIAN

HE CANNOT STAND THAT LANGUAGE but oh God Ivan is a very big man so he won't say anything, he'll just laugh a little.]

Still don't speak Russian, buddy.

[If he liked you more, he might give you a translation. But as it is, he's just going to let you suffer. ~~Sorry.~~]

Maybe while you in prison you learn. Good time for study.

You read Gogol. He tell you bout barber find nose in his bread. "Sir, you are mistaken. I am my own individual." Very good story.

[Don't ever be sorry, Ivan. Justin doesn't deserve sorry, and he'd be insulted to get that from you.]

Already went in and got out, buddy.

[Oh, look! Another instance of Ivan saying things Justin doesn't understand. Best reunion ever.]

...what?

[Oh.]

[See, this? This right here? Not cool. So unbelievably not cool.

~~Someone forgot to tell Tony that no-one stays dead in comi--er... Movie-land.~~]

[Focus.]

Huh. Feelin' a bit of deja-vu going on here, don't you? I mean, I feel compelled to say you're sounding pretty good for a dead guy, but I hate repeat performances. Plus, I already know the come back.

So what happened? Turn out you just couldn't get enough of me? So much so wild explosions couldn't tear you away and all that? I'm flattered, really, but I think we need to just stay friends. And you should...stay dead.

Hey, Tony. [His day is just getting better by the minute here. Just look at how happy he is to see you! Not happy for any reasons you're going to enjoy, mind. But that's where the fun is.]

Is good to be back.

What you do while I'm away?

So much time to think about the past. Did you miss me, in your heart? [Or, you know, your arc reactor, which you still half have his dead father to thank for, you arrogant bastard.]

You know, the usual; built myself a tower, made some superhero buddies, fended off an alien invasion, you know how it is; nothing to write home about.

[He is...just not liking any of this. Not one bit. But hey, he's pretty good at saving face so there isn't even a stammer in his voice as he speaks, not a hint of anything other than perfect confidence--he's well-practised in that area.]

Yeah, I always make sure to dedicate an hour a day to thinking about all the times someone's tried to kill me. Kinda like a zen hour, but with less zen.

So, what about you? Whatcha been up to during your dead period? I mean, I see you and your mun there are getting kinda cozy over there together but... [Dismissive handwave.]

Edited 2012-06-25 20:22 (UTC)

[Oh, but even if you don't show it, Tony, he's sure that you have to know. Just like you knew you were dying and said nothing.

How does it feel not to be able to hide?] Not so dead as you hoped I'd be, eh? Shouldn't have left so fast. Missed the end of the show.

My mun? You know what he wants me do to you? Is not bad idea. Or is it secret you not heard about yet?

[It's pretty discomforting, actually. Let's just not talk about that, yeah? Avoidance is the key in these situations.]

Yeah, kinda had some other things to deal with at the time, you might recall.

And I heard. Grapevine and such. Nothing stays a secret for long. He can want all he likes, and you can do it with him, but that doesn't mean it's going to happen.

[Have someone speaking your native language, Ivan. He's... been around. Also, genius. Point being: you threatened Tony Stark and that matters.]

Why would you go after Tony again? The last time should've been enough.

[They can have a whole conversation in Russian then; Ivan answers in the same tongue. It's actually rather refreshing, not to mention making him curious as to your identity, stranger.

Of course Tony will have his friends, that much is no surprise. But that anyone would want to defend Stark? It's not exactly unconscionable, just ignorant, short sighted, and foolish. There are people in the world who might deserve defending, but Tony Stark is not one of them.]

It should have been, but some men's legacies are more resilient. Like the shell of a roach. But don't worry. Is he a friend of yours? Well, it's not my aspiration to kill him now.

[They can indeed, though his pronunciation might be a tad rusty. The general meaning is there, though. As for his identity? Oh, we'll just... keep that under wraps for now.]

He has several friends. Not just me.

[Subtext: All would defend him.]

I think he earned his legacy, and continues to.

Yes. A legacy of thievery and profiteering and death. He continues to earn it, but the wool is over the eyes of many whose memories are short. It's easy to forget when the wolf has not sat on the doorstep of your home.

You don't have to tell me what his past is like. I've read up on it. I know him. I also know men can change. Tony has, and for the better.

You hear that? No, that. That other noise. Kind of, you know, like a buzzing of gnats. Kind of like when Justin starts running his mo...

Oh, that's what it was.

[he'll just be over here

hating your guts

you know how it is]

[Witness the smug, happy that life is how it should be.]

[Chuckling.] Would think you have bigger things worry about, eh Tony?

I'm good at multitasking. Saving the world. Taunting Hammer. Watching you to see just what the hell you're trying now. So many things.

Whatever issues you have with Mr. Stark, I would recommend you avoid collateral damage. Although killing him still will not make you better than him.

*She does not seem to appreciate games that put civilians in danger.*

[Interesting choice of phrasing and priorities. He doesn't disapprove.]

What issues I have with him have made they own damage. He is his own collateral, eh?

*Tony might be the Avenger least likely to try and capture her for SHIELD interests, next to Banner. Doesn't mean she actually likes him.*

If you must continue after Mr. Stark, do not use his few virtues against him. If you kill him while he defends innocent people, you make him a savior. I don't think Death could prevent that from going to his ego.

On top of that if you destroy any families, I will destroy you. This is your only warning.

[Have a Nightwing just hanging from a rafter or... something.]

I'm not sure I like your tone. Who is Tony Stark to you?

[Well hello there, friend. Vanko doesn't seem unsettled by your sudden appearance, just looking up curiously.]

To me? He is killer whose father steal my father's work.

Who is Tony Stark to you?

[And have a very acrobatic dismount.]

Never met the guy. But, at the same time, I can't let you do what it sounds like you're planning on doing.

However much of a jerk or a jackass the guy may or may not be, or how much he may have it coming to him, you can't just take matters into your own hands...

...wow that sounded hypocritical coming from a vigilante...

You go after Stark, you won't have just him to deal with.

[NOT THAT STEVE LIKES THE GUY OR ANYTHING okay maybe he does a little.]

[Light laughing. He doesn't know who you are, Cap, but he also doesn't really care.]

Hey, man. Before you lay down in grass you should check is not snake beside you.

[It doesn't matter to Steve. He doesn't know who Vanko is, either--but as far as he's concerned, you threaten one of his teammates, it's his business.]

You're one snake. There are six of us.

[ She replies in perfect, unimpressed Russian. ] He's not by himself anymore, Vanko.

I don't generally make a habit of repeating myself, but you sound pretty sprightly for a dead guy

Look, I don't like Tony either, but you crossed the line.

Scratch that, you crossed the line, turned around, and then urinated on it.

I was wondering if I might lure a Hammer out with this!

Ivan, your milkshake brings all the Hammers to the yard.

And he's like damn right its better than yours. He could teach you, but he'd have to charge

The only exception being burds, of course.

Shhh. He's trying not to think about the bird, okay! It's a sore spot. :'(

Justin owes him nine more birds, he'll be set for a while :')

He just wants one special bird, why can't you understaaaaaaaand! /cryface

That one's probs dead though, buddy, unless he took to chewin on your dad.

LMAO Ivan's dad-eating bird: new Marvel character!
